3. System Description
The PAFtec CleanSpace2 is a complete NIOSH approved respiratory system. When used in accordance with its NIOSH approval, the respirator helps to provide respiratory protection against particulates. CleanSpace2 does not provide protection against vapours or gasses and is not an intrinsically safe system. See the NIOSH Approval Section of these user instructions for additional information on approvals.
The components of the CleanSpace2 system are shown in Section 9. The blower draws ambient air through the high efficiency filter (and filter adaptor if used) and supplies filtered air to the wearer via the mask. CleanSpace2 is a breath responsive respirator which means that it blows harder during inhalation and more softly during exhalation. The device continuously adjusts fan speed to maintain positive pressure in the mask. Should the filter become
blocked, an audible alarm will sound and the “Filter” light on the keypad will be illuminated. If the battery voltage falls
below the minimum required to sustain the designed flow rate, an audible alarm will sound.
WARNING
Properly selected, used and maintained respirators help to protect against certain airborne contaminants. It is essential to follow all instructions and government regulations on the use of this product, including wearing the complete respirator system during all times of exposure, in order for
the product to help protect the wearer. Misuse of respirators may result in overexposure to
contaminants and lead to sickness or death. For proper use, see your Occupational Health
Specialist, these user instructions or contact PAFtec Customer Service on 1 888 804 0038

No PAPR can fully protect you if you are not clean shaven. CleanSpace2 is not suitable for users with facial hair.
IF A SATISFACTORY FIT FACTOR CANNOT BE ACHIEVED WITH ANY OF THE MASKS, CLEANSPACE2 MUST NOT BE USED
DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR OR A BRUSH TO CLEAN THE FILTER!
HEPA FILTERS ARE VERY EASILY DAMAGED BY THE USE OF COMPRESSED AIR OR BY BRUSHING.
Misuse of CleanSpace2 by cleaning the filter may result in overexposure to contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
IF A SATISFACTORY FIT CANNOT BE ACHIEVED, DO NOT ENTER THE CONTAMINATED ZONE
Be sure to remove the Seal Check Cap before entering the contaminated area. The Cap blocks the exhalation valve, making it more difficult for your
exhaled air to be expelled from the mask. Failure to remove the cap will lead to build-up of Carbon Dioxide in the mask, and may result in headache or
dizziness.
Never leave the Cap in place for more than 2 minutes!
DO NOT REMOVE THE RESPIRATOR UNTIL YOU HAVE
VACATED THE CONTAMINATED AREA unless you have pressing health reasons to do so (for instance you are experiencing dizziness and believe
removing the respirator while you leave the contaminated area may help)
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE CORRECT FILTER TYPE IS SELECTED
FOR THE CHOSEN APPLICATION.
If the blocked filter alarm is triggered (2 beeps, repeated every second, red LED flashes), leave the contaminated area immediately and replace the filter.
Operating the respirator after the blocked filter alarm has sounded can cause the flow to fall below the manufacturer’s minimum designed flow, which
may result in overexposure to contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR OR ANY OTHER MECHANICAL METHOD TO CLEAN THE FILTER!
HEPA FILTERS ARE VERY EASILY DAMAGED BY THE USE OF COMPRESSED AIR OR BY BRUSHING.
Misuse of CleanSpace2 by cleaning the filter may result in overexposure to contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
Use only NIOSH-approved CleanSpace™ filters with the CleanSpace2™ respirator. If used with other filters CleanSpace2 is not NIOSH approved. Use of
other filters may result in overexposure to contaminants and lead to sickness or death.

CleanSpace2 is not intrinsically safe. Do not use in flammable or explosive atmospheres. Doing so may result in injury or death.
Always correctly use and maintain the internal lithium ion battery packs. Failure to do so may result in fire or explosion or could adversely affect
respirator performance and result in injury, sickness or death.
- Do not charge the on-board battery with unapproved chargers, in enclosed cabinets without ventilation, near flammable liquids or gasses, or near
sources of high heat
- Do not immerse the device in water
- Do not use, charge or store the device outside the recommended temperature limits
If the battery alarm sounds (3 beeps, repeated every second), leave the contaminated area immediately and re-charge the battery.
Operating the respirator after the low battery alarm has sounded can cause the flow to fall below the manufacturer’s minimum designed flow, which
may result in overexposure to contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
The Flow Test is not a battery charge test. Three LEDs means that, as of the moment it is tested, the unit can deliver high flow. It does not mean the battery is full. You must check the battery condition separately. See Section 16.
IN THE EXTREMELY RARE CIRCUMSTANCE THAT THE BATTERY
IS DAMAGED AND ELECTROLYTE COMES IN CONTACT WITH EYES,
FLUSH WITH WATER IMMEDIATELY AND SEEK URGENT MEDICAL ATTENTION
WARNING: NEVER DRY THE MASK OR EXHALATION VALVE WITH A CLOTH THAT MAY LEAVE BEHIND LINT.
Lint contamination of the exhalation valve may cause it to leak, resulting in overexposure to contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
WARNING: The blower contains a battery, sensitive electronics and a motor. NEVER immerse it in water or use anything wetter than a damp cloth to
clean it.
WARNING: NEVER CLEAN THE FILTER WITH COMPRESSED AIR OR A BRUSH. HEPA FILTERS ARE EASILY DAMAGED BY THE USE OF
COMPRESSED AIR OR BY BRUSHING.
Misuse of CleanSpace2 by cleaning the filter may result in overexposure to contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
You must recalibrate the internal pressure sensor any time that your CleanSpace2 is exposed to changes in temperature of more than 36°F (20°C).
WHEN FITTING A NEW FILTER THE BLOCKED FILTER ALARM SHALL BE TESTED BEFORE THE
RESPIRATOR IS PUT BACK INTO SERVICE. SEE “TESTING THE BLOCKED FILTER ALARM” AT THE
END OF THIS SECTION

PARTS OF THE RESPIRATOR
Your respirator can be used with either a standard filter (PAF-1102 / PAF-1103) or with a high capacity filter (PAF-
1003). The high capacity filter is used with a filter adaptor (PAF-0038) and both standard filters are used with a filter cover (PAF-1095). Most functions of the respirator are the same regardless of which filter is being used. Where there are differences they are explained in this manual.

10. Controls and Indicators
POWER BUTTON
This button is used to switch between the three (3) operating Modes: “On”, “Standby” and “Off” Mode.
i) Standby Mode is when the green battery indicator lights are on, the motor is not running and
there is no airflow to the mask. The respirator will automatically switch to Standby Mode within ten (10) seconds of the user taking it off. If the respirator is in Off Mode it will switch to Standby Mode when the Power button is pressed.
ii) On Mode is when the respirator is being worn, the motor is running and there is air flow to the mask. The motor will start (called On Mode) when the respirator detects a change in pressure in the mask triggered by your breathing. In On Mode you should hear the motor running and feel the airflow on your face. You can also switch to On Mode (start the motor) from Standby Mode by pressing the Power button once.
iii) Off Mode is when the green battery indicator lights are off and the motor is not running and there is no air flow to the mask. The respirator automatically switches into Off Mode three (3) minutes after it has been removed from the user’s face and the sensors detect that there is no breathing.
To conserve battery life, the respirator is designed to automatically switch from On Mode to Standby then to Off Mode when not being worn.
Important: CleanSpace2™ switches into On Mode when it is in Standby Mode and the wearer starts to breathe. The respirator can only switch into On Mode from Standby Mode.
FLOW TEST BUTTON
This button is used to check that the respirator is able to deliver its minimum designed flow. Pressing it once, when the CleanSpace2 is in Standby Mode (not ON Mode), starts the flow test which lasts about 5 seconds. See Section 12 for instructions on running the flow test.
BATTERY INDICATOR LIGHTS
Your respirator is equipped with an indicator of battery charge. There are three (3) battery indicator lights. With the charger plugged in and three green lights lit, the battery is fully charged and typically has six (6) hours of operating time. The respirator should be fully charged before use.
If you need to be sure the battery is 100% charged plug in the charger. Even if the battery is fully charged, the 3rd
LED will flash for at least three minutes while the respirator checks its condition. Once all 3 LEDs light solidly
without flashing the battery is at 100%
For how to assess the level of charge, see Section 16.
When the battery approaches a level at which it would not be able to supply the Manufacturer’s Minimum Design
Flow, an alarm sounds (3 beeps, repeated once per second). All green battery lights are extinguished. If the low battery alarm sounds you must leave the contaminated area immediately and recharge the battery.
Page 10
10
Operating time is strongly affected by work rate, altitude, and other factors. The operating times quoted above are average durations at moderate work rates at sea level. Actual operating times may vary widely from average durations.
FILTER WARNING ALARM
CleanSpace2 has a Filter Warning Alarm, which is triggered when the filter is blocked. If the Filter Warning Alarm sounds (two beeps, repeated once per second) or the Filter Warning Alarm light comes on, you must move out of the contaminated area, and change the filter.
11. Mask Fitting
Before you use your respirator you must determine the right mask for your face and know how to adjust the machine to achieve a good fit.
It is vital that your mask is the right size for your face and fits properly. Mask fitting must be carried out by a specialist / designated mask fitter. The fit must be confirmed by a quantitative fit test performed according to OSHA regulations 1910.134.
To carry out a quantitative fit test your specialist mask fitter will require PAF-0025 PortaCount Adaptor and the accompanying S005-7174 Quantitative Fit Test Instructions. The PortaCount Adaptor is an accessory that fits between the mask and the exhalation valve and allows the air in the mask to be sampled. It comes with detailed instructions on how to carry out a quantitative fit test.
No PAPR can fully protect you if you are not clean shaven. CleanSpace2 is not suitable for
users with facial hair.
MASK SELECTION GUIDELINES
No set of guidelines can ensure that you have the right size mask for your face. You must confirm the fit with a quantitative fit test. But the table below will help your mask fitting specialist to select the mask most likely to
fit you, and may therefore save time.
Page 11

12. Using CleanSpace2
Complete the following five steps each time you use your respirator.
STEP 1 - INSPECT Before each entry into a contaminated area, the following inspections must be performed:
Visually check the entire respirator system including the blower, mask, harness, louvered filter cover or
filter adaptor and filter. If parts are missing or damaged replace them only with approved parts before proceeding. Check the top and bottom case of the blower, and the Filter Adaptor for cracks or other damage. Do not use the device if there is any damage.
Remove the HE filter and check it carefully. The seal must be clean and free from damage of any kind. If
necessary it can be cleaned with a cloth dampened with water. Examine the visible internal surfaces for any sign that dust has leaked past a damaged seal. If found, replace the filter. The body of the filter must not be cracked or show any sign of damage. Examine the filter carefully for any sign that it has sustained an impact or been scratched. If any sign of impact or scratching is found, discard the filter. Refit the HE filter (see Changing the Filter, below)
DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR OR A BRUSH TO CLEAN THE FILTER!
HEPA FILTERS ARE VERY EASILY DAMAGED BY THE USE OF COMPRESSED AIR OR BY
BRUSHING.
Misuse of CleanSpace2 by cleaning the filter may result in overexposure to contaminants and
lead to sickness or death.
Check that the battery is fully charged by pressing the power button. All three battery LEDs must light.
See Section 16.
Check both bellows for splits or holes. Check that the bellows have not become distorted so as to
partially or fully close the air path to the mask.
Check the mask to ensure that there are no cracks, tears or dirt; check the mask is not distorted.
Check the exhalation valve for damage or dirt build up. If it is dirty, remove the exhalation valve cover.
Remove any dirt, hairs or anything that could affect the seal of the valve against its seat. Check that the valve seat is clean. Reinstall the valve cover. If the valve is damaged, replace the mask.
Check the harness is intact and has good elasticity. It must be adjusted to support some of the weight of
the respirator.

STEP 2 – CALIBRATE
This respirator contains a system for synchronising with your breathing and regulating mask pressure. This system requires re-calibration whenever it experiences a change in temperature of more than 36°F (20°C). It is best practice to also re-calibrate if the unit has been in storage, particularly if the storage temperature is not known. To re-calibrate:
1. Remove the mask (if fitted). The Flow Test Cap must not be fitted.
2. Remove the filter from the respirator. If using a standard filter, close the filter cover. If using the Filter Adaptor leave it in place. Place the respirator on a stable surface such as a table.
3. With the respirator in standby mode (one or more green LEDs lit), press and hold both the Power button and the Filter Test button.
If no LEDs are lit, press the Power button once to enter standby mode.
4. When both the blue and red LEDs light, release both buttons. Leave the respirator sitting still.
5. After 5 – 10 seconds the motor will start and run for 5 – 10 seconds.
6. When the motor stops, calibration is complete.
7. Re-fit the filter.
Important Note: Failure to remove the filter prior to calibration will result in poor battery life. In order to restore performance of the respirator, calibration must be performed again with the filter removed.
STEP 3 – TEST FLOW RATE
This test checks that the machine is able to deliver the Manufacturer’s Minimum Design Flow of 115 litres/minute.
1. Fit the yellow Flow Test Cap to the left bellow. See Figure 3.
Figure 3 - Flow Test
2. Make sure nothing is blocking the Flow Test Cap or the filter inlet. Place the respirator flat on a table or other support.
3. Press and release the button marked “Flow Test”
4. The respirator automatically runs the Flow Test. The motor will run fast and air will be discharged from the Flow Test Cap.
5. After 2 seconds the respirator reports the result of the test using the LEDs on the keypad. Use the table below to interpret the LEDs.
To avoid unnecessary filter
changes, it is important to fit
the Flow Test Cap to the LEFT
bellow.
No air flows out of the right
bellow. Fitting the Flow Test
Cap to the right bellow will
result a FAIL result, even if the
filter is clean and battery fully
charged.

Reset the respirator by pressing the Power button. Fully charge the battery and / or replace the filter. Repeat the flow test. If filter is new and battery fully charged but the respirator fails the test, contact PAFtec and do not use until it has been evaluated
** This test is not a battery charge test. Three LEDs means that, as of the moment it is tested, the unit can deliver high flow. It does not mean the battery is full. You must check the battery condition separately. See Section 16.
6. Remove the yellow Flow Test Cap and store for later use.
STEP 4 - DON THE RESPIRATOR
NOTE – please read STEP 4 all the way through before beginning to don the respirator
Locate your blower, mask, neck pad and harness. Make sure the mask and neck pad are of the size that you used for your last successful quantitative fit test. These sizes should be recorded in this manual (see Section 11
above).
Fit a mask to CleanSpace2
Examine the mask AirClips. One is open and one is closed. Find the one that is closed. Seen from above it is on the right hand side. See Figure 4
Locate the right hand blower AirClip. It is on the same side of the blower as the “Flow Test” button. See Figure 5
Figure 4 - Right hand (closed) mask AirClip
Figure 5 - Right hand blower AirClip
Join the AirClip, so that the mask is attached to the blower. See Figure 6 and Figure 7.
Page 14
14
Figure 6 - Join AirClip
Figure 7 - Mask on Blower (Note - connection is on right hand side)
Check that the mask is the right way up! The pointed, nose section of the mask must face up, in the same direction as the keypad. See Figure 8.
Figure 8 - Nose section of mask and keypad must both face up
Leave the other mask arm and bellow free until you are fitting the Respirator.
Familiarise yourself with the Adjust Buttons and the Mask Release Buttons. See Figure 9
Figure 9 - Mask Release Button and Adjust Button
Page 15
15
Fit the Harness
Locate the strap on the harness that is made from loop-pile material. . This is the back strap. If a neck pad is in place, remove it by pulling it away from the two strips of loop pile fabric on the blower. Locate the section of hook material on the end of the back strap of the harness. Fit the back strap of the harness to the blower by pressing the section of hook material on the end of the strap against the two strips of loop pile material on the blower. See Figure 10.
Figure 10 - Harness Rear Strap
The two front straps of the harness fit to the AirClips on the mask. See Figure 11.
If unsure of your fitting, start with the 3rd hole from the end of the strap.
Figure 11 - Harness Front Strap
Make sure to use the same settings on the harness as you used in your last successful quantitative fit test. These setting should be recorded in the table in Section 11
Fit a Neck Pad
The pad is fitted with two strips of hook fabric. Press these strips against the matching strips of loop fabric on the blower. The centreline of the Neck Pad should align with the centreline of the blower. Figure 1 shows the neck pad being fitted.
Rear strap fits behind neck pad
Page 16
16
Figure 12 - Fitting neck pad
Make sure to fit the same size neck pad as you used in your last successful quantitative fit test. The size (thick or thin) should be recorded in the table in Section 11
Loosen both bellows to their widest opening
Press the adjust button on the blower and pull on the bellows to extend them. See Figure 13.
Figure 13 - Adjust Button
Place the machine in Standby Mode
Press the Power button once
Don the respirator and start to breathe. (The motor should start)
Place the blower behind your neck with the bellows and mask hanging down one side. See Figure 14 Hold the mask in your left hand and the harness in your right. See Figure 15 Pull the mask around onto your face and the harness over your head. See Figure 16 Press your chin into the cup at the bottom of the mask and your nose into the top section of it. Fasten the AirClip on your left hand side. See Figure 17 and Figure 18 Reach up and pull the harness forward to settle it on your head. See Figure 19
Press neck pad into place against these strips

Breathe normally. The motor should start and you should feel fresh air on your face. If the motor does not start, it was not in Standby Mode. Take the respirator off, press the
Power button to activate Standby Mode and don it again as described above.
Check the Harness
The Harness should take a little of the weight of the mask and support the blower so that the respirator system sits level on your head. If necessary adjust the harness. This is mostly done by shortening or lengthening the front straps of the harness, by moving between the different button holes. Remember to shorten or lengthen each side by the same amount. The length of the rear strap can be changed by adjusting the length of the top loop of strap where it passes around an eye in the mesh “cap”. See Figure 20.To adjust the strap, doff the respirator, adjust the strap, and don it again.

Figure 20 - Correct CleanSpace2 Position
Tighten the mask on your face
Tighten the mask until you do not feel any leaks between the mask cushion and your face.
To tighten the mask, place one hand against the back of the blower and the other over the front of the mask. Push the blower forwards and the mask back, tightening the fit. You will hear a series of clicks as the mask is tightened. See Figure 21.
. Be careful to tighten each side by the same amount
Figure 21 - Tightening Mask
STEP 5 – CHECK MASK SEAL
It is essential to do a fit check every time you wear a CleanSpace2
Locate PAF-1009, the red Seal Check Cap. Fit Seal Check Cap over the exhalation valve in the mask. The Cap should snap into place. See Figure 22
.
Figure 22 - Fitting Seal Check Cap
Check that no air is flowing from the exhalation valve. Breathe normally.
Length of rear strap is adjusted here
Page 19
19
Using your fingers, feel around the perimeter of the mask for leaks. You will feel any leak as a cool flow of air over your finger. For greater sensitivity breathe out firmly to raise the mask pressure. Wetting your fingers will make it easier to feel tiny leaks.
If necessary tighten the mask. To tighten the mask, place one hand against the back of the blower and the other over the front of the mask. Push the blower forwards and the mask back, tightening the fit. You will hear a series of clicks as the mask is tightened.
Be careful to tighten each side by the same amount. After each tightening, feel for leaks again
Tilt your head down (look at the ground) and up (look at the sky). Check that there are still no leaks. Look right and left, checking for leaks. Adjust if necessary.
Once you can feel no leaks from the mask, the seal check is complete.
IF A SATISFACTORY FIT CANNOT BE ACHIEVED, DO NOT ENTER THE CONTAMINATED ZONE
Remove the Seal Check Cap by gently twisting the handle so that one side of the cap comes loose from the exhalation valve. Be careful not to dislodge the exhalation valve cover. See Figure 23.
Figure 23 - Removing Seal Check Cap
Be sure to remove the Seal Check Cap before entering the contaminated area. The Cap blocks
the exhalation valve, making it more difficult for your exhaled air to be expelled from the mask.
Failure to remove the cap will lead to build-up of Carbon Dioxide in the mask, and may result
in headache or dizziness.
Never leave the Cap in place for more than 2 minutes!
13. Entering and Exiting the Contaminated Area
Prior to entering the contaminated area, complete the inspections and checks listed in these user instructions.
1. Ensure Seal Check has been done and motor is responding to your breathing
2. Check that none of the alarms are sounding.
3. Remember that if your workplace is very noisy you may not be able to hear the device alarms. In this
case you must follow the special precautions set out in Section 14.
4. Enter the work area
5. Do not remove the respirator until you have left the contaminated area, unless you have pressing health
reasons to do so (for instance you are experiencing dizziness and believe removing the respirator while you leave the contaminated area may help).
6. Leave the contaminated area immediately if any of the following conditions occur:
a. Any part of the system is damaged b. Airflow into the mask decreases or stops c. The battery of filter alarms are triggered (even if only the audible or only the visible alarm
triggers)
Page 20
20
d. Breathing becomes difficult e. You feel dizzy or your vision is impaired f. You smell or taste contaminants g. Your face, eyes, nose or mouth become irritated h. You suspect the concentration of contaminants may have reached levels at which this
respirator may no longer provide adequate protection.
7. You should have specific exiting and decontamination procedures as part of your workplace respiratory
protection program. Follow those procedures, together with the instructions below when removing the respirator.
To remove the respirator, find the Mask Release Button (see Section 9) and press to release the mask from the blower. See Figure 24.
The mask release button has a rough, dimpled finish that you can feel with your fingertips. All the other buttons are smooth
Figure 24 - Mask Release Button
Note: The respirator motor will automatically switch off and go into Standby Mode in approximately 10 seconds when no breath is detected. In Standby Mode, if after three (3) minutes no breath is detected, the Respirator will automatically go into Off Mode. In Off Mode, all the battery indicator lights will be off and the motor will not be triggered by the wearer’s breathing.
DO NOT REMOVE THE RESPIRATOR UNTIL YOU HAVE
VACATED THE CONTAMINATED AREA unless you have pressing health reasons to do so (for
instance you are experiencing dizziness and believe removing the respirator while you leave
the contaminated area may help)
14. Working in Noisy Environments
In most noisy environments the CleanSpace2 alarms are still clearly audible to the wearer. But if there is a chance that you will not hear the alarms, you must take the following extra precautions
Never enter the contaminated zone unless all three green battery indicator lights are illuminated  Never work in the high noise area for more than four (4) hours. At the end of four hours, leave the
contaminated zone and check that
o The filter blocked light is not illuminated; AND o All three green battery indicator lights are still illuminated
If two or fewer green battery indicator lights are illuminated, recharge CleanSpace2 until 3 lights are
showing again (and the 3rd one has stopped flashing)
If the filter blocked light is illuminated, change the filter  Be particularly aware of difficulty breathing or of the air flow stopping. If these things happen, exit the
contaminated zone immediately.
Page 21

15. Fitting & Changing the Filter
Before using the respirator you must ensure that you are using the correct filter type for the environment you are working in.
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE CORRECT FILTER TYPE IS SELECTED
FOR THE CHOSEN APPLICATION.
Before changing the filter, move out of the contaminated area and remove the respirator. Used filters should be disposed of responsibly and treated as non-recyclable hazardous* waste (* dependent on the contaminant being filtered). Filters need to be regularly changed. The frequency of change depends on use and concentration of contaminants in the atmosphere.
BLOCKED FILTER ALARM
All CleanSpace respirators have a Filter Blocked alarm, which is triggered when the filter requires replacement (2 beeps, repeated every second).
If the blocked filter alarm is triggered (2 beeps, repeated every second, red LED flashes), leave
the contaminated area immediately and replace the filter.
Operating the respirator after the blocked filter alarm has sounded can cause the flow to fall
below the manufacturer’s minimum designed flow, which may result in overexposure to
contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
(Pressing the Power button once will mute the Filter Blocked alarm, allowing you to concentrate while you exit the contaminated zone. After 15 minutes, if the filter has not been changed, the alarm will resume).
WHEN TO CHANGE THE PARTICULATE FILTER
Change the filter
When the Blocked Filter Alarm sounds  If the Flow Test indicates that the respirator is not able to produce the Minimum Design Flow.  If there is any sign of damage to the filter  When the filter reaches its expiry date (marked on the filter label)  When the outside of the filter is heavily soiled  When the filter is wet  If there is any sign of dust or contaminants on the inside surface of the filter.
A respirator with a clean filter will run for much longer than one with a filter that is dirty. To maximise your work time between battery charges, it is best to change the filter more often.
CleanSpace™ filters are NOT reusable and must NOT be cleaned.
DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR OR ANY OTHER MECHANICAL METHOD TO CLEAN THE FILTER!
HEPA FILTERS ARE VERY EASILY DAMAGED BY THE USE OF COMPRESSED AIR OR BY BRUSHING.
Misuse of CleanSpace2 by cleaning the filter may result in overexposure to contaminants and
lead to sickness or death.

CHANGING THE STANDARD FILTER (PAF-1102/ PAF-1103)
To unlock the filter cover, lift the pin located on the end of the filter cover. The filter cover will swing open exposing the used filter. Remove the filter.
Check that the area where the filter sits is clean. If necessary wipe it with a clean cloth or CleanSpace Cleaning Wipe.
Fit a new filter. Swing the filter cover back into closed position and hold it firmly against the body of the respirator with one hand. Press the pin down until clicked back into place.
Check that the blocked filter alarm is working, as described below.
WHEN FITTING A NEW FILTER THE BLOCKED FILTER ALARM SHALL BE TESTED
BEFORE THE RESPIRATOR IS PUT BACK INTO SERVICE. SEE TESTING THE
BLOCKED FILTER ALARM” AT THE END OF THIS SECTION
USING THE HIGH CAPACITY FILTER (PAF-1003)
The high capacity HEPA filter requires the use of an adaptor. Follow the steps below to fit the Adaptor.
Figure 25 - Fitting the Filter Adaptor
(Note adaptor shown without “Hoop”, which does not affect fitting or removal)
The Filter Adaptor comes with a 3mm hex key. The 3mm hex key can be found clipped on to the inside
the Filter Adaptor.
Page 23
23
Remove the Filter Cover by lifting the pin located at one end and open the cover.
Using the hex key, remove the bolt at the opposite end of the Filter Cover. The Cover can now be lifted away
and stored.
Fit the Filter Adaptor to the back of the respirator. Ensure the adaptor is correctly aligned with the silver
CleanSpace logo facing up - the same side as the keypad.
Replace and tighten the bolt using the hex key to secure one end of the Filter Adaptor. Before replacing the
pin, pivot open the Adaptor out from the respirator and clip the hex key back into place to store.
Press the Adaptor against the unit and push the pin back into place. The Filter Adaptor is now ready to use.
(To remove the Filter Adaptor, simply reverse the steps above)
CHANGING THE HIGH CAPACITY FILTER (PAF-1003)
STEP 1. Removing the filter from the filter adaptor
Turn the respirator upside down. Using your thumb, move the Latch Lock out of the way and then pull the
Latch firmly away from the filter. The filter can now be removed. See Figure 26.
Figure 26 - Removing HEPA Filter
STEP 2. FITTING A NEW FILTER TO THE FILTER ADAPTOR
Clean the sealing surfaces on the adaptor and on the filter.  Hold the new filter so that the blue seal is facing the adaptor. Locate 2 ribs on the filter body into the slots in
the top of the filter adaptor and rotate the filter into place. See Figure 27
Snap the latch firmly over the 2 ribs on the bottom of the filter body. You will hear 2 clicks when the filter is
positioned correctly. Note: The latch lock will move to one side automatically. See Figure 27.
The filter is now sealed to the respirator and ready to use.  Check the blocked filter alarm as described below
Figure 27 - Fitting a new HEPA Filter
Use only NIOSH-approved CleanSpace™ filters with the respirator. If used with other filters
CleanSpace2 is not NIOSH approved. Use of other filters may result in overexposure to
contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
Page 24

WHEN FITTING A NEW FILTER THE BLOCKED FILTER ALARM SHALL BE TESTED BEFORE
THE RESPIRATOR IS PUT BACK INTO SERVICE. SEE “TESTING THE BLOCKED FILTER
ALARM” AT THE END OF THIS SECTION
TESTING THE BLOCKED FILTER ALARM
After changing the filter, check that the Blocked Filter Alarm is audible and the Filter LED is working. Do not fit the Flow Test Cap for this test.
1. To prepare for this test you must completely block the entry to the filter.
a. If using a standard filters, open the filter cover and place your hand to completely cover the filter
grille (see picture below).
b. If using the high capacity filte, stand the machine on a flat surface so that the inlet to the filter is
completely blocked (see picture below).
2. With the respirator in Standby mode (one or more green LEDs lit), press and release the Power button. The
blue LED will light and the respirator starts blowing.
If no LEDs are lit, press the Power button once to enter Standby mode.
3. After 5 - 10 seconds, the red Filter LED will light and the blocked filter alarm will sound (2 beeps, repeated
every second).
4. Reset the machine by pressing the Power button.
If the red Filter LED does not light or the alarm does not sound, check that the inlet of the filter is completely blocked. If the Filter LED and/or audible alarm are still not working, do not enter the contaminated zone. Contact PAFtec for assistance.

16. Battery Information
CleanSpace2 is not intrinsically safe. Do not use in flammable or explosive atmospheres.
Doing so may result in injury or death.
Always correctly use and maintain the internal lithium ion battery packs. Failure to do so may
result in fire or explosion or could adversely affect respirator performance and result in injury,
sickness or death.
- Do not charge the on-board battery with unapproved chargers, in enclosed cabinets without
ventilation, near flammable liquids or gasses, or near sources of high heat
- Do not immerse the device in water
- Do not use, charge or store the device outside the recommended temperature limits
ASSESSING STATE OF CHARGE
The three LEDs on the control panel indicate the level of charge. When the unit is in use (not on charge) they work like a fuel gauge allowing you to estimate your remaining work time. When the unit is on charge, the 3rd LED turns on solidly (no flashing) only when the battery is fully charged (100%), making it easy for you to tell when the unit is 100% charged.
If you need to be sure the battery is 100% charged plug in the charger. Even if the battery is fully charged, the 3rd
LED will flash for at least three minutes while the respirator checks its condition. Once all 3 LEDs light solidly
without flashing the battery is at 100%
With the unit NOT on charge

* Operating time is strongly affected by work rate, altitude, and other factors. The operating times quoted
above are average durations at moderate work rates at sea level. Actual operating times may vary widely from average durations.
CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERY
The internal battery must only be charged with a CleanSpace charger.
To charge the internal battery, turn the
respirator upside down, and locate the charging port. See Figure 30 - Charging Port
Lift off the flexible polymer charging port
cover. Slide the charger cable connector into the charging port. Ensure the charger is plugged into a power socket.
Turn the respirator over and check that one of the green LEDs on the keypad is flashing. If none of the LEDs is flashing, the unit is not charging. Check that the charger is plugged into the wall socket and the charger cable is plugged securely into the socket on the underside of the respirator. If the respirator is still not charging, contact PAFtec Customer Service on 1 888 804 0038
Figure 30 - Charging Port
Page 26
26
Charging is complete when the blower shows three (3) green solid lights. If the third green LED is
flashing rapidly, charging is 95% complete.
When the respirator is fully charged, disconnect the charger cable from the blower charging port.
IMPORTANT Ensure you replace the charging port cover to prevent dirt and contaminants getting into the port.
Note: The battery can only be charged at temperatures between 32°F and 95°F (0°C and 35°C). Outside
this temperature range no charging will occur.
Do not charge the battery in electro-magnetically noisy environments, such as near welding machines. Doing so
may damage the CleanSpace2 electronics.
Do not leave the respirator plugged into its charger for more than one week at a time. Doing so may shorten the
battery life.
LOW BATTERY ALARM
Your respirator has a low battery alarm, which is triggered when the battery has approximately 5 minutes life remaining (3 beeps, repeated every second). You cannot mute the low battery alarm except by connecting the respirator to its charger or by stopping the motor (doff the respirator and either press the Power Button once or allow the respirator to detect that there is no breathing and stop)
When the battery voltage becomes extremely low, the motor will stop.
If the battery alarm sounds (3 beeps, repeated every second), leave the contaminated area
immediately and re-charge the battery.
Operating the respirator after the low battery alarm has sounded can cause the flow to fall
below the manufacturer’s minimum designed flow, which may result in overexposure to
contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
GENERAL BATTERY INFORMATION
Your respirator has an internal lithium ion (Li-ion) polymer battery. Lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries have the highest energy density of all battery types, and are widely used today in portable electronic devices across many different industries. The commonly available Li-ion polymer batteries are similar to Li-ion batteries, except they are packaged in a soft polymer film as opposed to the metal case commonly used for Li-ion cells. The soft packaging allows the cells to expand slightly under extreme heat, making them safer in fault conditions. CleanSpace respirators use quality Li-ion polymer batteries and are designed to be viable over a minimum of 500 complete charge and discharge cycles while still maintaining at least 70% of their specified full capacity.
RESPIRATOR STORAGE
To maintain the integrity of the internal battery, the respirator must be stored under the following conditions when not being used:
Long term storage (> 30 days) 30% - 50% RH, 65°F to 82°F (18°C to 28°C) Short term storage (< 30 days) 30% - 50% RH, 14°F to 95°F (-10°C to 35°C)
The following precautions must be followed during use:
Avoid mechanical shocks or impacts from any sharp or hard objects
Do not use or place the respirator in extreme heat, such as in direct sunlight, near heat sources, etc. The
battery will be damaged if its temperature rises above 212°F (100°C). Note: The respirator will stop functioning if its internal temperature rises above 140°F (+60°C) or falls below 14°F (-10°C)
Do not dispose of the respirator in a fire
Do not use the respirator in heavy rain, or allow it to get wet or immersed in liquid
Do not disassemble the blower case, there are no user serviceable parts inside
Do not use the respirator if there are any signs of severe mechanical damage
IN THE EXTREMELY RARE CIRCUMSTANCE THAT THE BATTERY
IS DAMAGED AND ELECTROLYTE COMES IN CONTACT WITH EYES,
FLUSH WITH WATER IMMEDIATELY AND SEEK URGENT MEDICAL ATTENTION

17. Cleaning
We recommended that you clean your respirator after every use. The mask, blower, neck pad and harness need to be cleaned separately. Disassemble the mask, neck pad and harness from the blower before cleaning. CleanSpace Cleaning Wipes are recommended as a simple and effective method of cleaning the blower and masks.
CLEANING THE MASK
There are two methods for cleaning the mask. Before washing the mask, remove the valve cover covering the exhalation valve leaf. To remove the valve cover, find the small inlet located under the lower, inside edge of the valve. Use your finger nail to unclip and push up the valve cover. See Figure 31.
The valve cover is easily fitted back by placing it with the clip aligned to the inlet on the valve seating and pushing down. The valve cover will gently snap back into place.
Figure 31 - Removing Exhalation Valve cover
1. CleanSpace Non-Alcohol Wipes for face piece
CleanSpace Cleaning Wipes are impregnated with benzalkonium chloride, a bactericidal solution ideally
suited for silicone face pieces.
To clean the exhalation valve, remove the valve cover (using the instructions above), gently wipe the leaf
edge. Replace the valve cover before use.
2. Hand wash in warm soapy water
Wash the mask thoroughly with a mild detergent in warm water (less than 122°F (50°C)).
A soft brush or sponge can be used to remove any stubborn dirt or grit
To clean the exhalation valve, gently wash the warm water solution through the valve and use a sponge
to gently clean the valve surface
Rinse the mask and valve well in warm running water. IMPORTANT: If the mask is not rinsed thoroughly,
residue from cleaning solution may irritate the wearer’s skin or cause the valve to stick. Replace the
valve cover before use.
Drying the mask
After cleaning, allow the mask to air dry in a clean environment, valve up to prevent water pooling. Note: Do not dry the mask by exposing directly to heat i.e. hair dryers or heaters. The mask can also be hand-dried with a clean, lint­free cloth. IMPORTANT: Cleaning can cause the exhalation valve leaf to stick. Before use, check that the exhalation valve leaf operates freely by gently lifting the valve. Replace the valve cover before use.
WARNING: NEVER DRY THE MASK OR EXHALATION VALVE WITH A CLOTH THAT MAY LEAVE BEHIND LINT.
Lint contamination of the exhalation valve may cause it to leak, resulting in overexposure to
contaminants and lead to sickness or death.
Page 28
28
CLEANING THE BLOWER
WARNING: The blower contains a battery, sensitive electronics and a motor. NEVER immerse
it in water or use anything wetter than a damp cloth to clean it.
After removing the mask, remove the neck pad. Leave the filter in place to prevent any dust or liquids
from getting into the blower.
WARNING: NEVER CLEAN THE FILTER WITH COMPRESSED AIR OR A BRUSH. HEPA FILTERS ARE EASILY
DAMAGED BY THE USE OF COMPRESSED AIR OR BY BRUSHING.
Misuse of CleanSpace2 by cleaning the filter may result in overexposure to contaminants and
lead to sickness or death.
Use a gentle brush to remove any dirt, grit or fibres from the Velcro attached to the blower.
Using CleanSpace Cleaning Wipes, wipe down the outside of the blower. The blower can also be
cleaned with a damp cloth.
Allow the blower to air dry in a clean environment. The blower can also be hand-dried with a clean lint-
free cloth. Note: Do not dry the blower by exposing to heat (i.e. hair dryers or heaters) or
compressed air.
CLEANING THE HARNESS AND NECK PADS
The harness and neck pads can be washed in warm soapy water or machine washed. After cleaning, allow the harness and neck pads to air dry in a clean environment.
Note: Do not dry the harness or neck pads by exposing directly to heat i.e. hair dryers or heaters
18. Periodic Maintenance & Checking
Recalibration
You must recalibrate the internal pressure sensor any time that your CleanSpace2 is exposed
to changes in temperature of more than 36°F (20°C). ). It is best practice to also re-calibrate if the
unit has been in storage, particularly if the storage temperature is not known.
See Section 12 for how to calibrate your respirator.
